Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Cocaine flame in my bloodstream
Sold my coat when I hit Spokane
Bought myself a hard pack of cigarettes
In the early morning rain
Lately my hands, they don't feel like mine
My eyes been stung with dust and blinds
Held you in my arms one time
Lost you just the same
[Chorus]
Jolene
Well, I ain't about to go straight, it's too late
And I found myself face down in the ditch
Booze in my hair, blood on my lips
A picture of you holding a picture of me
In the pocket of my blue jeans
Still don't know what love means
Still don't know what love means
[PostChorus]
Jolene
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
Jolene
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la
[Instrumental]
It's been so long since I've seen your face
Or felt a part of this human race
I've been living out of this here suitcase for way too long
Man needs something he can hold onto
Nine pound hammer or a woman like you
Either one of them things will do
[Chorus]
Jolene
Well, I ain't about to go straight, it's too late
And I found myself face down in the ditch
Booze in my hair, blood on my lips
A picture of you holding a picture of me
In the pocket of my blue jeans
Still don't know what love means
Still don't know what love means
[PostChorus]
Jolene
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
Jolene
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la
[Outro]
Cocaine flame in my bloodstream
Sold my coat when I hit Spokane
